[0027] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0028] In addition, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise stated, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.
[0029] See Figures 1 to 5 , this application provides a ship composite material weathertight door, including:
[0030] The door frame 1, which is a rectangular frame structure, and the door frame 1 is used for fixedly connecting with the bulkhead;
[0031] The door panel structure 2 is connected inside the door frame 1 through a hinge 3; the door panel structure 2 sequentially includes an upper panel 201, a grid sandwich structure, and a lower panel along the thickness direction; both the upper panel 201 and the lower panel are predetermined composite materials; the predetermined composite material at least includes a fiber reinforcement and a flame-retardant resin matrix;
[0032] The locking member 7 is used to lock the door panel structure 2 and the door frame 1 when the door panel structure 2 rotates into the door frame 1.
[0033] The predetermined composite material in this application has characteristics such as low density, high strength, corrosion resistance, and fatigue resistance, and can achieve the goal of integrating the functions of the panel structure, reducing the weight of the weathertight door by 30% - 50% compared with metal materials, being able to lower the center of gravity of the ship, improve the ship's stability, and enhance the ship's maneuverability.
[0034] In an implementable manner, the fiber reinforcement can be one or more of carbon fiber, glass fiber, basalt fiber, aramid fiber, and polyimide fiber; the flame-retardant resin matrix can be one or more of phenolic resin, epoxy resin, vinyl ester resin, polyimide resin, unsaturated polyester resin, silicone resin, cyanate resin, and furan resin.
[0035] In an implementable manner, the thickness of the panel structure is 2 mm, and the thickness deviation of the door panel structure 2 is less than or equal to ±0.2 mm.
[0036] In an implementable manner, the panel structure is a symmetric structure in the thickness direction. While meeting the requirements of strength, stiffness, and weight, it ensures the flatness and easy manufacturability of the panel to improve the mechanical properties, durability, and corrosion resistance of the panel.
[0037] It should be noted that during the laying process of the fiber reinforcement of the upper panel 201 or the lower panel, the flame-retardant resin matrix is used to infiltrate the fiber reinforcement. The symmetric structure refers to the arrangement and laying structure of the fiber reinforcement in the flame-retardant resin matrix.
[0038] Specifically, the fiber reinforcement in the upper panel 201 or the lower panel at least includes a 0° ply, a 45° ply, a -45° ply, or a 90° ply. The fiber direction in the 0° ply is arranged parallel to the upper panel 201 or the lower panel, that is, the fibers are laid along the length or width direction of the upper panel 201 or the lower panel, improving the strength and stiffness of the panel structure in the fiber direction. The fiber direction in the 45° ply is laid at an angle of 45° with the surface of the upper panel 201 or the lower panel. This laying method helps to increase the shear resistance of the panel structure and the strength distribution in different directions, improving the overall strength and toughness. The fiber direction in the -45° ply is laid at an angle of -45° with the panel surface. This laying method and the symmetric laying method of 45° together form a cross-laying structure, which helps to balance the mechanical properties of the panel structure in different directions and reduce anisotropy. The fiber direction in the 90° ply is perpendicular to the 0° ply, that is, the fibers are laid along the direction perpendicular to the length or width direction of the panel. This laying method improves the strength of the panel in the direction perpendicular to the fiber direction, helping to increase the torsional resistance and overall stability of the panel.
[0039] In an implementable manner, the panel structure is fabricated by means of vacuum autoclave or molding, and the curing procedure is set in accordance with the curing temperature curve of the flame-retardant resin. After cooling to room temperature, demolding is carried out.
[0040] In an implementable manner, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the grid sandwich structure includes a plurality of grid bars 202 that are parallel or cross each other. By arranging the grid bars 202, the overall strength and stiffness of the door panel are enhanced.
[0041] It should be noted that the shape of the voids enclosed by the grid bars 202 includes one or more of square, triangular, hexagonal, or circular.
[0042] In an implementable manner, a predetermined material is filled in the voids enclosed by the grid bars 202.
[0043] It should be noted that the predetermined material is one or more of fiber cotton, mineral wool, foam, and aerogel.
[0044] In an implementable manner, the grid sandwich is formed by liquid molding. Before laying the 0° ply, the surface layer is first laid on the surface of the mold. The molding mold is made of a material with a high coefficient of thermal expansion, such as silicone rubber, etc., so as to apply pressure to the outer wall of the grid bars 202 during the molding process to ensure the strength of the grid sandwich.
[0045] In an implementable manner, the upper panel 201, the lower panel, and the grid sandwich are surface-cleaned with organic solvents. And physical or chemical surface treatment is carried out on the surfaces of the upper panel 201, the lower panel, and the grid sandwich to improve the interfacial bonding performance.
[0046] In an implementable manner, each grid bar 202 has a predetermined thickness and a predetermined height. The predetermined thickness of the grid bar 202 is 2 mm, and the deviation between the thickness of the grid bar 202 and the predetermined thickness is less than or equal to ±0.2 mm. The predetermined height of the grid bar 202 is 50 mm. The grid bar 202 is super-flattened so that the deviation between the height of the grid bar 202 and the predetermined height is less than or equal to ±0.3 mm.
[0047] In an implementable manner, a structured epoxy adhesive film is provided between the upper panel 201 and the grid sandwich structure, and between the lower panel and the grid sandwich structure. The structured epoxy adhesive film is used to adhesively connect the upper panel 201, the lower panel, and the grid sandwich structure.
[0048] In an implementable manner, the structured epoxy adhesive film optimizes the bonding effect and the mechanical properties of the door panel through a predetermined bonding pattern or a predetermined layout.
[0049] It should be noted that the bonding strength of the structured epoxy adhesive film is greater than or equal to 20 MPa. When conducting the airtightness test of the door panel structure 2, the test pressure is greater than or equal to 0.2 MPa, and the flushing time is greater than or equal to 3 min.
[0050] In an implementable manner, the upper panel 201 or the lower panel adopts a composite material of E-glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin matrix, so that the panel structure has corrosion resistance and the characteristics of light weight and high strength. The upper panel 201 or the lower panel is formed by the vacuum hot press autoclave method, the curing temperature is 150 °C, the curing time is 1 h, and it is demolded after cooling to room temperature.

The directional compressive strength of the above panel structure is ≥196 MPa, the bending strength is ≥13.7 MPa, and the interlaminar shear strength is ≥25 MPa.
[0051] In another implementable manner, the upper panel 201 or the lower panel adopts a composite material of S-glass fiber reinforced vinyl resin matrix, so that the panel structure has corrosion resistance and the characteristics of light weight and high strength.

The directional compressive strength of the above panel structure is ≥245 MPa, the bending strength is ≥18 MPa, and the interlaminar shear strength is ≥30 MPa.
[0052] In an implementable manner, as Figure 1 and Figure 5 shown, the locking member 7 at least includes a roller head 4, a connecting rod 5 and a wedge 9. Both ends of the connecting rod 5 are hinged with a roller head 4 respectively. By controlling the up and down movement of the connecting rod 5, the roller head 4 is driven to rotate into the wedge 9, and the locking member 7 is in a locked state.
[0053] In an implementable manner, as Figure 1 shown, a handle 8 and a door hook 6 are provided on the door panel to assist in the opening and closing of the door panel structure 2.
